One day, he asked Tigrett to hang his guitar over his favorite bar stool to "mark his spot" -- and word traveled fast. Just a week later, Pete Townshend sent one of his axes over with the note, "Mine's as good as his! Love, Pete." That's how the memorabilia collection was born, and also how Clapton and Townshend's bitter blood feud began. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebes Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 Django for sure. It defined how he played his instrument and approached music and made him one of the most influential guitarists of all time. This is not a good good question, though, because there have been numerous musicians playing without various fingers, arms, legs and such. "Three Fingers Willie" comes to mind. How about something simpler, but not as simple as you think. Who had the number one US album by sales of all time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
